Is there a good working plugin for C# in Eclipse? I'm using a Linux machine so I do not have access to Visual Studio Express. I already have an Eclipse Environment working perfectly for my needs so I don't want to deal with multiple IDEs if at all possible. It doesn't need code complete but highlighting and compiling would be nice.

I used to use it... in fact the dev license is sitting on my desk collecting dust. I did some tests between eclipse with gcc vs VS2010 and the EXEs were 10x smaller than VS2010... plus it's not cross-platform, and my dev team consists of 2 macs, 4 ubuntus, and 1 windows.

Advertising VS2010 here is quite unnecessary since the author has stated that he/she does NOT have access to Visual Studio Express since he/she is working on a Linux machine. When you get VS2010 up and running on Linux (even with some overhead), give me a call... As for the question - sadly all at least to me known Mono C# Eclipse plugins are extremely outdated. You can however maybe try some tweaking using custom makefiles in Eclipse and make it possible to compile C# code from there but you will have to accept the absence of almost everything a modern IDE offers for a specific language.

Is this really a valid Answer? The Question required an answer that would work in a Linux environment. The "migratenetvs" link states that only windows is supported. Quote - ".NET V2.0 SDK — This means you must work in a Windows environment. "
